we live in a rural area and on our first time testing our garmin it wanted us to go 40 miles out of our way to use the freeway. reason- The device can only be set to use lowest mileage route or fastest time route. Though description of garmin nuvi255wt says that it displays speed limits for roads - we've found so far that it only has speed limits for freeways and about a third of highways. When their is no known speed limit for a road it wont consider it for a faster route - therefor only routing us to the freeway 40 miles away. Also, while looking for points interest(restaurants, stores etc) it did not have information or was not able to find many stores that we knew were there. I went to best buy to find out what to do and they said I needed to buy the maps download. The maps download to update information was $119.99. So basically you have to spend $150 + on the device, then before it can actually be used you have spend another $120... Not what i was planning on... The device will probably work fine if you only drive in older areas where theres been no recent construction and your not worried about finding specific stores or restaurants.... Not pleased!!!
What's great about it: easy to use
What's not so great: out of date at time of purchase
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
